I have just seen the new video by Sean Paul called Got 2 Luv U Ft. Alexis Jordan. First of all I have been a big fan of Sean Paul when he came out with Like Glue, Get busy, temperature, Breath and so on. He was different and I think he was just being himself and he did music that had reggae and dancehall music but the songs just made you want to dance. He was amazing with slow songs aswell.Now watching and listening to his new song I feel like his not being himself. The video in a posh hotel room/ nightclub that looks like it's in Vegas with loads of sparkles and girls who really can't dance on top of tables. The song is very catchy in the sense that they probably repeat got 2 luv like a billion times....Half or more of the song it's just got to love yeah...on repeat. The video was like a lot of videos now a days and that's why I think he felt the need to do what was being done now.

Sean Paul is nearly 40 years old and maybe he wants to keep up with the trend, which explains the silly Mohawk....even the single cover of a phone and the song name in texts…come on it’s like you're mother saying “innit”....then the dance/pop music and the ohh so common nightclub scene with girls dancing around.Where is the originality, the creativity....Like his music used to have, even if he was talking about getting high...the videos where interesting, the dancing, the reggae feel and the music. He was different from what anyone else was doing. His songs were like you could listen to them ten years from now and you would love it still.
Overall, the song is average at best.
